as appalling as such murders are, i ask that people please not jump to conclusions about the entire middle east from one article about the happenings in one country. the middle east is a vast region with a huge amount of different countries and cultures that simply cannot all be represented by something that happened in northwestern pakistan.
if people were to jump to huge sweeping conclusions about the people in the west from the countless examples of gruesome murders committed in the western world... well, treating our women like crap would be an extremely light charge.

What a gross generalisation. Sure, in PARTS of the Middle East people are misogynistic wankers with no regard to what Islam teaches in regards to women's rights who do abuse women, but your post has displayed such ignorance. How many Middle Eastern women do you know?

Wow, I am so sorry for that completely idiotic post. I hope you accept my apology, but I sure will understand if you won't. I feel absolutely horrible now. Is there anything I could do for you? I didn't even say what I meant to say correctly. I also apologized in the messages in case you don't read this soon.

Sorry if I seemed like a hater. :$ I'm not Arab myself, but my fiancee and most of my friends are so it can be a touchy thing for me. Pakistan isn't in the Middle East, either, for the record.

Sounds exactly like what happens to the millions of male chicks born into the egg industry. -SV Oh, I know! I was thinking that too! And also that fact that... Some country, I think it's Afganistan, but I'm not sure, but anyways. It's now legal for the husbands to rape their wives... If the wifes don't agree to have sex, the husbands can rape them every four days.

Another disgusting law the media has lead the gullible public to attribute to Islam...

Pakistan is indeed not in the Middle East, however it is associated with the Middle East because of the bush administration's coining of the term "greater middle east" to refer to countries like pakistan, turkey, afghanistan, iran, etc.

Sayf, it is so true (and unfortunate) that people tend to associate Middle Eastern traditions, crimes, etc. with Islam. I am not a Muslim, though I know that the majority of them are not at all violent criminals like media, US government, etc. make them out to be. Hopefully things will change. However many more non-humans are affected by the animal industry, so my fight is for Animal Rights until Total Animal Liberation is reality. -SV I'm not a vegetarian (anymore, I hope I'm still accepted here, but I joined as a non-Veg.) But I do believe both are noble fights. Basoically to help their us against them mentality, conveniently with one word...
